Digital Zakat, a joint venture of Dhiraagu, a telecommunications provider in the Maldives and the Ministry of Islamic Affairs, facilitates the payment of zakat through a mobile phone. Zakat is the practice of charitable giving by Muslims based on accumulated wealth. It is very convenient even for someone who does not understand English since the service is based on numbers seen from the USSD menu. It is an excellent model for developing countries and small island nations with limited banking services to reach the masses using mobile technology.
